I'm a sixers fan and have watched every game this season....they really struggle against the better teams and are even worse if the better team has a great point guard......D Rose will hurt the sixers tomorrow and if the bulls are -1 I'm all over it.....thanks for Memphis today LB

fukk I wish Deng were healthy. i would go big if he was in. A wing player that matches up great against the sixers wings like iggy and their depth they have there.

I think im in good shape with the Mavs ML -120. I dont see this line moving back towards okc.

Kalibongo · 02-01-12, 10:25 AM

LB, do you like the Spurs? The starters are all rested and Pop had a 'talk' with them.

They should cover but its a rivalry game and I wouldn't lay that much. As of now dallas is the only play for today but I like the jazz getting +3.5 at home .

clippers have an absurdly bad record in utah over the last decade or so...last time they played they got destroyed this season, but it was without cp3...i like the clipps in this spot, even with the return of jefferson. i usually wouldn't play against utah at home, especially getting points, but clipps will be focused and play hard tonight. the record is really absurd, 1 win in the last like 30-40 appearances in utah...

EDIT: Just checked out the LAC at UTAH stat: Clippers are 1-42 in Utah in last 43 games played there. WOW

The Architect · 02-01-12, 05:43 PM

seems like a tough card tonight, might stay away. can't find anything i really like...the dallas-okc game has just too many strong angles, in my opinion. good spot for dallas but i think okc will really want this one...suns ML is a pretty good play to me but with that team you really never know, having said that i've cashed (and lost) plenty on them so far this year...rockets always seem to be either really overvalued or extremely undervalued, always at one end of the spectrum. i think they're undervalued here, should be a close game. BOL

BigDofBA · 02-01-12, 06:37 PM

While I want my Thunder to win, I'm fairly certain they will lose tonight.

t-wizzle · 02-01-12, 06:46 PM

Thunder just went to -1 at Greek bro

jaeguyoon · 02-01-12, 06:52 PM

These aren't your grandfather's clippers ;-)

that said, Utah has been absolutely horrible in national tv games. They do have some match up advantages here however. still undecided looking into it more. i want to make a small play on it later for action since it's a late 10:40pm game

Speedy88 · 02-01-12, 07:37 PM

What do you guys make of all this line movement. I've been at work all day and just got home to see it went from Mavs -2 down to a pick em. I really liked Mavs until I saw the line movement. LB, you still confident with Dallas?

I am Happy · 02-01-12, 07:39 PM

All of sbr seems to be on Dallas tonight

grizzy · 02-01-12, 07:40 PM

Lamar Odom out for tonight - might explain some of the movement. I've found success betting teams that start as favourites and end as dogs. Vegas usually has a good reason for making a team a favourite. That being said, this game is probably a no play for me.

Such as Utah the other night against POR and Indi in GS a couple of weeks ago. Can't think of anymore examples off the top of my head, but I do agree with you on this.

I like Mavs too, I just really wish Brendan Haywood was playing. Mahimi has been solid this year, but after Mahimi they don't have much depth up front coming off the bench. Brian Cardinal???

PR9 · 02-01-12, 08:02 PM

fukk me why do BOTH Odom AND Haywood have to be out for this one. ah well there's other good plays on tonight's board

PS3 · 02-01-12, 08:11 PM

i remember BW saying that even if the bench is depleted. homedogs might get it.
i hope so.

Don't worry. Yi Jianlian is here!

Twiz isn't the greek awful this year? Dallas looks pretty good so far.

They were the sharpest of the sharp books through last year. Now no US market (less volume) and Spiros is gone. They've been really bad this season.

No coincidences · 02-01-12, 09:50 PM

Mavs have been brutal since the 1Q.

migz · 02-01-12, 09:50 PM

Nice win OKC.

Damn... Gonna need to keep an eye on that then.

lakerboy · 02-01-12, 10:02 PM

I just threw a unit on dal ml live at +205. I doubt they shoot like that in the fourth.
